63 cleaned , 62 , AU-58 retoned .
Looks more random than an actual chop mark or counterstamp , maybe something was on the planchet when it was struck .
I think a lot of the best fakes came out of the Mideast awhile ago , Chinese fakes have nothing on those fakes . Always compare a suspected fake...
I'd go EF-40 on this one . Matt did this one walk in on it's own , nice !!!!!
